Shunned for her sin of adultery, she refuses to reveal the father’s name, setting in motion a story of forbidden love, hidden guilt, and relentless vengeance. As whispers of hypocrisy spread through the rigid community, Hester’s quiet strength and dignity stand in sharp contrast to the judgment that surrounds her. Through haunting imagery and richly drawn characters, the narrative probes the conflict between passion, conscience, and societal expectation.Published in 1850, Nathaniel Hawthorne’s The Scarlet Letter became a cornerstone of American literature, breaking ground by addressing taboo subjects like sin, morality, and hypocrisy. Its profound symbolism, psychological insight, and critique of rigid social codes laid the foundation for modern American fiction. The novel’s exploration of justice, identity, and redemption continues to resonate, securing its status as a timeless classic.
